Singapore Airlines will announce a special edition of its Spontaneous Escapes promotion on March 7, 2025, at 4 p.m. SGT, which traditionally offers a 30% discount on Business, Premium Economy, and Economy Saver awards for travel the following month. This time, the teaser hints at an “upsized” offer, suggesting potentially larger discounts or more destinations. Previous editions have included significant discounts, like 50% off Economy awards and special pricing for KrisFlyer UOB cardholders. Members are encouraged to check the website early on the 7th to secure deals before the official announcement. Stay tuned for exciting updates!
If you’re a frequent follower of KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes, you’re likely familiar with the routine: every 15th of the month (or the next business day), special deals are announced, featuring a 30% discount on selected Business, Premium Economy, and Economy Saver awards for travel in the upcoming calendar month.
However, this month, Singapore Airlines is hinting at something different. Members should circle Friday, 7 March 2025 on their calendars, as an “upsized” Spontaneous Escapes offer is set to be unveiled.
Special Edition of Spontaneous Escapes for March 2025
Earlier this week, Singapore Airlines teased a special edition of Spontaneous Escapes scheduled for this Friday, 7 March 2025.
The announcement indicates 4 p.m (SGT) as the time to look out for, but based on previous editions of Spontaneous Escapes, it’s likely that award inventory will be available prior to the official launch. Thus, it could be beneficial to check the website starting in the morning to potentially snag a deal early.
An early access to Spontaneous Escapes also provides additional time to arrange your leave, particularly for those whose supervisors aren’t amenable to last-minute requests.
What Can We Expect?
As for what we might encounter, your guess is as good as mine. Nonetheless, there have been notable special editions of Spontaneous Escapes in the past:
- February 2019: 50% off Economy Saver awards, and Business Saver awards offered at Economy Saver pricing (45-60% off depending on the route)
- January 2020: A massive 51% off all awards… then COVID struck
- March 2022: After a two-year break, Spontaneous Escapes returned with the typical 30% discount alongside an extended travel window for April and May 2022
- August 2023: Maintained the usual 30% off, but offered an additional 5% milesback for KrisFlyer UOB Credit and Debit Cardholders
- February 2024: KrisFlyer celebrated its 25th anniversary with the standard 30% discount and an expanded travel period for March and April 2024. Again, KrisFlyer UOB Credit and Debit Cardholders received another 5% milesback
I’m personally optimistic for discounts around 50%, and if Singapore Airlines is in a particularly generous mood, an extended travel period covering the next couple of months would be fantastic.
I don’t want to be a downer, but let’s face it: we’re unlikely to see Suites or First Class awards included in this sale. Booking those at the Saver level is challenging enough; do you honestly believe Singapore Airlines would roll out a promotion for them?

Conclusion
Singapore Airlines is set to launch their popular Spontaneous Escapes promotions early this month, so members should tune into the airline’s official social media pages at 4 p.m on Friday, 7 March 2025.
The specific details are yet to be disclosed, but I’d anticipate a discount larger than the regular 30%, especially given the “upsized” hint (unless that refers to the number of destinations available, which is also a possibility).
Stay tuned, and let’s hope for an exciting announcement!
